Industrial bioreactor for microbial food production

In the rapidly evolving field of new food applications, there is increasing demand for efficient and scalable microbial production systems. High-performance bioreactors are essential to meet the stringent requirements of precision fermentation and large-scale cultivation in the food industry.

Enhance microbial cultivation performance

The GEA Axenic® M is a specialized industrial-scale bioreactor designed for microbial production, particularly focusing on cultivation and precision fermentation. This bioreactor leverages a stirred tank reactor approach, optimizing oxygen transfer, temperature control, and shear sensitivity to maximize cell growth and yield. Using GEA’s Virtual Bioreactor Testing technology, it offers precise control of key process parameters, thereby enhancing the performance and reliability of microbial cultivation. The system is fully automated with external cooling loops, valve feedback, and sterile barriers, supported by the GEA Codex® process control platform. This ensures process stability, safety, and resource efficiency. The Axenic® M is tailored for large-scale production in the food industry, targeting applications such as mycelium and alternative proteins, and is fully regulatory compliant.
